A printer comprising: a conveyor (14) defining an X direction (W) and a Y direction (L) perpendicular to the X direction, the conveyor configured to receive a substrate (20) of maximum width in the X direction and to move the substrate linearly in the Y direction; a first array (34e) of multiple inkjet print heads distributed along a length of the first array; where the print heads have a prescribed native resolution and a prescribed dot pitch; one support (16e), spanning the conveyor in the X direction, where the first array is pivotably mounted (40) at its midpoint to the support, where the first array is pivotable about an axis perpendicular to the X and Y directions, and where during printing the array is pivoted sufficient to reduce and compress a width of printing applied in the X direction and causing printing to occur in greater resolution than said native resolution.
